Wonder if I should hook a larger funnel to the opening so that more air

It's actually there to increase the velocity, not cool the air.

Winter air temp makes a difference? Is the expansion temp Delta only 4 or 5

It sounded like a good theory

Yes, or no. If you just expand the air, you have shifted energy
from phase of the air to another. It requires something like an
intercooler that takes the heat from the intake air and moves it to
ambient air.

Why not one of those big middle-of-the-hood ram air scoops that you have to
crane your neck to see over? That would look real sporty on your Mercedes.

Yeah it has to be asked what the thinking is behind using these types of
air filters.
I believe they where developed for racing car application and then found
their way into road going cars.
Sure MB developed their air intake systems for the worst possible
scenarios and are not as free flowing
More to the point, the KN was developed for DIRT TRACK racing, where
there is alway an enormous amount of dust. Wash and re-oil is quick,
cheap, and they don't plug up as bad as paper filters.
There are no other advantages, as has been demonstrated numerous
times. In most cases, when you
